We sell a lot of 80s does 50s dresses. Recently sold some for graduation dresses. Most young girls think it is 50s...they are not that educated and like I mentioned, they are just after the "look". One nice thing about many of the repros is that they have 5% spandex in the fabric, so fit well.

Gorgeous!! What lovely finds that look just amazing on you!

Late to this, but joining in anyhow... Whenever we come across vintage reproductions, we buy them for the shop. Some do not want to pay high prices for authentic vintage and just want the look, others simply cannot fit into vintage. I like Ruby Rox for the younger set. Stop Staring is cute, but...

Thanks wonderful ladies...you are all so kind (and good for my ego).

OK - pls. excuse the terrible camera angle fully exposing my turkey neck which I have sadly inherited from my mother :( It was a fun 4 minutes of complete dry mouth, but fortunately no terrible nerves! Hope I don't look like a total dork. Have had lots of great feedback already and one...

I am hoping the interview is on their website and will definitely post a link if so. Now....what to wear???? Egads - I might have to bust out the Spanx after Thanksgiving turkey tomorrow!

When it rains it pours!! Our 2 day vintage event is next weekend...in the meantime, my biz partner and myself are appearing on an early morning talk show on Tuesday speaking about vintage fashion and two days after our event we are opening our new pop-up boutique for the next 3 months in the...

Just a quick snap of the cutest skirt ever for a BBQ competition! Bought from Tiffany at the Yard Sale, this polka dot pig wrap skirt received a ton of compliments! We won 2 - 3rd Place Ribbons and placed 5th overall. A good bbq day!

...another opens - as they say! Well our pop-up lease at the shop is done at month's end. It was a learning experience, but the location was Calgary's best kept secret and there just was not enough traffic. To make $300 in sales on a sunny weekend is just not going to cut it. Have been...

Great find...and no shipping costs to boot!! Can't wait to see more pics!

Wow...what a fabulous find. Can't wait to see them after their touching up!

Love that dress!!!!

That is shearling which made from sheared lambs. Super warm and durable and a great find as they were very pricey brand new!

Really fun!! Love how the brightly painted fence in the one pic stayed the same ugly color over the years.

So beautiful!!! I have been wanting to make (a much simpler version of course) to sell in the shop...you have inspired me to get off my rear!

Wow...don't know how I missed these the first time around?? Trapman that is excellent that you happened to find our forum and can fill in the blanks! A most exciting story here.

What a great story!! Glad you found the VFG and clued us in on your family's business history!!

Thanks all!! The videographer and musician are both 16 yr. old friends of my oldest son. Really talented guys!! The event was a huge success on the coldest day of the year!! We (well... our clothes) are on a morning show tomorrow with 4 of our outfits for Valentine's date night looks.

He had to make a small edit - good link is there now!

I have always wanted to find a pair of these...I remember the ads so vividly in Seventeen magazine from my junior high days! Be-Hi in Size 10..woot! Just listed on ebay. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330524253088&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

Fabulous! Love the way you are rocking those the boots!! Nicely done.

Lovely items!! And remember everyone to click on each item...the fastest way to grab them all is to hit the Ctrl button and then click on each item.

Rent is so high here in Calgary that it is pretty much the only way to make a retail presence these days. We are still looking for the right space though, it just isn't going to happen as quickly as we thought. Something in the works right now...hoping that it pans out. Cross fingers and toes!

Thanks a bunch Amy!

Am loving the "pop-up boutique" concept and am doing another here in Calgary...not that there are many of you close by :( Anyhow, just thought I would let you all know! Here is our poster and facebook page...still waiting for a few new "likes" so I can change our url to a nice tidy one on...

I have always admired how you know exactly which red lipstick looks great on you!! You go girl!
